pancreatic secretions - ANSWER=buffer acidic chyme and contains lipase to digest fats, amylase
for carbs, and protein digesting enzymes
villi - ANSWER=found in small intestine; increase surface area for better nutrient absorption
during digestion
large intestine - ANSWER=reabsorbs water and packs the indigestible food into feces
ureters - ANSWER=tubes that transport urine to the urinary bladder, where it is stored before
urination through the urethra
nephron - ANSWER=Functional unit of the kidney, consisting of a glomerulus, renal tubule, and
collecting tubule. Filters waste out of blood brought to the kidney by the renal artery. Filtration
occurs due to blood pressure build up through the glomerulus in the Bowman's capsule
spermatazoa - ANSWER=male gamete; develop in the seminiferous tubules of each testis
interstitial cells - ANSWER=produce testosterone and influence sperm cell development and
male secondary sex characteristics
Epidydimis - ANSWER=site of sperm storage in the testis
1 liter - ANSWER== 1,000 milliliters

hypothalamus directs eating, drinking, body temperature, helps govern the endocrine system
via the pituitary gland, and is linked to emotion. The thalamus relays messages between lower
brain centers and cerebral cortex
brainstem - ANSWER=brain structure that directs vital functions like respiration and heart rate
hypothalamus - ANSWER=component of the endocrine system which governs the pituitary
gland and is controlled by feedback of hormone concentrations in the blood
steroid hormones - ANSWER=hormones that enter target cell and act on DNA of nucleus
nonsteroid hormones - ANSWER=hormones at the cell surface which act through a secondary
messenger like AMP
infundibulum - ANSWER=structure connecting hypothalamus to the pituitary gland
tropic hormones - ANSWER=produced in the anterior pituitary which act on other endocrine
glands: somatotropin, adenocorticotropic hormone, thyroid stimulating hormone, follicle
stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone
somatotropin - ANSWER=growth hormone
adenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) - ANSWER=anterior pituitary, stimulates cortisol release
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) - ANSWER=stimulates secretion from thyroid gland
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) - ANSWER=hormone of anterior pituitary that stimulates
production of ova and sperm
,3|Page
luteinizing hormone (LH) - ANSWER=hormone produced in the anterior pituitary that causes
ovulation; stimulates the secretion of progesterone by the corpus luteum; causes the secretion
of testosterone in the testes
oxytocin - ANSWER=posterior pituitary hormone which stimulates uterine contractions during
labor and milk ejection from mammary glands
antidiuretic hormone (ADH) - ANSWER=posterior pituitary hormone which promotes retention
of water by the kidneys
thyroid - ANSWER=endocrine gland which regulates metabolism, decreases blood calcium
through calcitonin
